HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAIGE! SORRY A LITTLE LATE, LOVE YOU! 

Hola Familia!

This week was a another good one! There really isn't a bad week when you are serving in the Lord's work. It's actually starting to get cold over here which is nice.I can walk for 5 minutes and not feel like I just took a shower. Haha I'm actually starting to use a sweater when we go out to teach. But things went well this week. We were able to visit some people that have been really hard to find after we visited them the first time, and had some great lessons! I can see how the Lord blesses us after the trial of our faith. These past couple weeks we have passed by these people's houses and they haven't been home or have been busy so we couldn't meet with a lot of them. Honestly it was pretty frustrating haha. But this week we kept the faith and decided to keep passing by until we found them. So we kept passed by and were able to find them finally and had some awesome lessons!

One of those lessons was with a lady named Angela. She is a single mom who lives in a house with her sister and one of her kids. We passed by to visit her after almost 2 weeks had passed. We asked her if she remembered what we taught her last, she said she remembered a little bit. So we starting explaining to her the restoration again and she began to remember. We asked her if she had prayed to know if it was true, and she said no, but she told us that she feels it is true! She told us how it all just makes sense. But, that she knows she needs to ask God. We invited her to do so, and she said she would, and that we can pass by whenever we want if she's home. Its hard to explain how well it went in a letter, but it was great to see her willingness to learn and how she has felt the Spirit and feels it is true! If we would have given up and not kept passing by to see if she was there, we probably would have never found her again, and she never would have been able to know the truth of these things! I know that Heavenly Father is part of this work, and He sees our efforts. When we do all we can, He does the rest. I know these things are true, and that Heavenly Father will help us know the truth if we seek it. Have a good week! Much love
